The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2008, Les 4 Saisons: Yellow Sea by M. Micallef is a Citrus Aromatic fragrance for men crafted by perfumer Jean-Claude Astier. This composition opens with the bright zest of lime and bergamot, creating an invigorating freshness that contrasts sharply against its warm spicy and smoky base notes like incense and patchouli. The interplay between these elements is what gives Yellow Sea its distinctive character — it's a fragrance that moves seamlessly from morning to night.
Apply two sprays for a balanced experience — the citrus top notes are vibrant but fleeting, while the smoky base notes emerge after an hour. This fragrance reads better close to skin than across a room, making it ideal for intimate settings.
